Sarah Silverman
I was sent to sleepover camp since I was 6, and you know, it's a recipe for disaster.
Sarah Silverman
I have lows, you know, everybody does ... but I kind of know how to handle it. I like to let myself wallow in it. I enforce it with terribly sad music, and it kind of pushes me through to the other side eventually, and I always know it's going to pass.
Sarah Silverman
I don't care if you think I'm racist. I just want you to think I'm thin.
Sarah Silverman
I just don't let that mentality be a part of my world.
Sarah Silverman
